Senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader M Venkaiah Naidu on Monday alleged that the United Progressive Alliance government, in an effort to cover up its failure, was hurrying with the India-United States nuclear agreement that was 'against the interest of the nation'.

"Without a comprehensive deliberation on the issue and without taking the Left and Opposition BJP into confidence, the Congress-led UPA government is hurrying the deal to cover up its failures in all fronts," Naidu said.
